Your not the only one Tony. I was able to see a working copy of this book while at Kent Carnie's house a couple of years ago. He had that and a working copy of HIS new book on the history of American Falconry, sitting on his coffee table. I'd be lying if i said i wasn't tempted to grab both and bolt out the front door of Kent's house. But, he'd only run me down/over with is Porshe Carrera and take them back, lol...
